Definitions

  • the present invention relates to malonamide derivatives, pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds, and methods of using the compounds for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD).
  • the present invention also relates to processes for manufacturing the compounds of the invention.
  • AD Alzheimer's disease
  • Pathologically AD is characterized by the deposition in the brain of amyloid in extracellular plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles.
  • the amyloid plaques are mainly composed of amyloid peptides (Abeta peptides) which originate from the ⁇ -Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) by a series of proteolytic cleavage steps.
  • APP ⁇ -Amyloid Precursor Protein
  • APP ⁇ -Amyloid Precursor Protein
  • the ⁇ -secretase is a typical aspartyl protease.
  • the ⁇ -secretase is a proteolytic activity consisting of several proteins, its exact composition is incompletely understood. However, the presenilins are essential components of this activity and may represent a new group of atypical aspartyl proteases which cleave within the TM of their substrates and which are themselves polytopic membrane proteins. Other essential components of ⁇ -secretase may be nicastrin and the products of the alpha and pen-2 genes.
  • Proven substrates for ⁇ -secretase are the APP and the proteins of the Notch receptor family, however, ⁇ -secretase has a loose substrate specificity and may cleave further membrane proteins unrelated to APP and Notch.
  • the ⁇ -secretase activity is absolutely required for the production of Abeta peptides. This has been shown both by genetic means, i.e., ablation of the presenilin genes, and by low-molecular-weight inhibitory compounds. Since according to the amyloid hypothesis or AD the production and deposition of Abeta is the ultimate cause for the disease, it is thought that selective and potent inhibitors of ⁇ -secretase will be useful for the prevention and treatment of AD.
  • Objects of the present invention are the compounds of formula IA or IB per se and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof. It has been found that the compounds of general formulas IA and IB are ⁇ -secretase inhibitors. Therefore, objects of the invention also are pharmaceutical compositions containing compounds of formula IA or IB or their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts, and use of compounds of formulas IA or IB or their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts for the treatment of diseases related to ⁇ -secretase inhibition. Another object of the invention is the use of compounds of formula IA or IB in the control and prevention of Alzheimer's disease. A further object of the invention is the manufacture of the compounds of the invention. Yet another object of the invention are all forms of optically pure enantiomers, racemates or diastereomeric mixtures for compounds of formulas IA or IB.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to malonamide derivatives, pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds, and methods of using the compounds for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The present invention also relates to processes for manufacturing the compounds of the invention.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia in later life. Pathologically AD is characterized by the deposition in the brain of amyloid in extracellular plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles. The amyloid plaques are mainly composed of amyloid peptides (Abeta peptides) which originate from the β-Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) by a series of proteolytic cleavage steps. Several forms of APP have been identified of which the most abundant are proteins of 695, 751 and 770 amino acids length. They all arise from a single gene through differential splicing. The Abeta peptides are derived from the same domain of the APP but differ at their N- and C-termini, the main species are of 40 and 42 amino-acid length.
Abeta peptides are produced from APP through the sequential action of 2 proteolytic enzymes termed β- and γ-secretase. β-Secretase cleaves first in the extracellular domain of APP just outside of the trans-membrane domain (TM) to produce a C-terminal fragment of APP containing the TM- and cytoplasmatic domain (CTFβ). CTFβ is the substrate for γ-secretase which cleaves at several adjacent positions within the TM to produce the Aβ peptides and the cytoplasmic fragment. The majority of Abeta peptides is of 40 amino acids length (Aβ40), a minor species carries 2 additional amino acids at its C-terminus. Latter is supposed to be the more pathogenic amyloid peptide.
The β-secretase is a typical aspartyl protease. The γ-secretase is a proteolytic activity consisting of several proteins, its exact composition is incompletely understood. However, the presenilins are essential components of this activity and may represent a new group of atypical aspartyl proteases which cleave within the TM of their substrates and which are themselves polytopic membrane proteins. Other essential components of γ-secretase may be nicastrin and the products of the alpha and pen-2 genes. Proven substrates for γ-secretase are the APP and the proteins of the Notch receptor family, however, γ-secretase has a loose substrate specificity and may cleave further membrane proteins unrelated to APP and Notch.
The γ-secretase activity is absolutely required for the production of Abeta peptides. This has been shown both by genetic means, i.e., ablation of the presenilin genes, and by low-molecular-weight inhibitory compounds. Since according to the amyloid hypothesis or AD the production and deposition of Abeta is the ultimate cause for the disease, it is thought that selective and potent inhibitors of γ-secretase will be useful for the prevention and treatment of AD.

The compounds were investigated in accordance with the test given hereinafter.
Description of γ-Secretase Assay
The activity of test compounds can be evaluated in assays which measure the proteolytic cleavage of suitable substrates by γ-secretase activity. These can be cellular assays where e.g., a substrate of the γ-secretase is fused in its cytoplasmic domain to a transcription factor. Cells are transfected with this fusion gene and a reporter gene, e.g., firefly luciferase, which expression is enhanced by the transcription factor. Cleavage of the fused substrate by γ-secretase will lead to expression of the reporter gene which can be monitored in appropriate assays. The γ-secretase activity can also be determined in cell-free in vitro assays where e.g., a cell lysate containing the γ-secretase complex is incubated with a suitable APP-derived substrate which is cleaved to the Abeta peptides. The amount of produced peptides can be determined with specific ELISA assays. Cell lines of neuronal origin secrete Abeta peptides which can be measured with the specific ELISA assay. Treatment with compounds which inhibit γ-secretase leads to a reduction of secreted Abeta thus providing a measure of inhibition.
The in vitro assay of γ-secretase activity uses a HEK293 membrane fraction as a source of γ-secretase and a recombinant APP substrate. Latter consist of the C-terminal 100 amino acids of human APP fused to a 6×Histidin tail for purification which is expressed in E. coli in a regulatable expression vector, e.g. pEt15. This recombinant protein corresponds to the truncated APP fragment which results after β-secretase cleavage of the extracellular domain and which constitutes the γ-secretase substrate. The assay principle is described in Li Y M et al, PNAS 97(11), 6138-6143 (2000). Hek293 cells are mechanically disrupted and the microsomal fraction is isolated by differential centrifugation. The membranes are solubilized in detergent (0.25% CHAPSO) and incubated with the APP substrate. The Abeta peptides which are produced by γ-secretase cleavage of the substrate are detected by specific ELISA assays as described (Brockhaus M et al, Neuroreport 9(7), 1481-1486 (1998)).
The preferred compounds show a IC50<1.0 μM. In the list below are described some data to the γ-secretase inhibition:
